Not So Fast!
A great many spiritual practitioners are working hard to “raise” their “vibration.” Higher vibrations, such as those experienced in the upper chakras, are desirable because they lead to “enlightened” experiences, such as expanded viewpoints, feelings of oneness, prophetic vision, and so on. These are great things, and ought to be experienced often! They have a unique quality and sweetness when experienced from your physical point of view.
But we want to point out that lower vibrations, such as those experienced in the physical plane-physical objects, sensations, emotions, instincts and drives-ought to be your primary practice while you are incarnated, believe it or not.
There is an exquisite quality to the low vibration of physical matter (which, by the way, isn’t that low a vibration at all… it’s vibrating fast enough that you can’t put your hand through, say, a table or tree!), as well as physical sensation, emotions, and so on. These low vibrations focus your attention like nothing else. When you are in a high vibration, your vision goes out of focus, so to speak, and you lose the capacity to discern fine detail. You tend to have “big” experiences, such as the experience of oneness, perceiving some sort of grand insight, comprehending grand mental concepts, and so on. But when you slow way down, you notice a Universe of fantastic detail, and your attention is naturally drawn to these fine distinctions. Look at a leaf on a tree, and really let yourself slow down and admire the beauty of that leaf. As you slow down, the details of God’s Universe come into focus, and you can enjoy the bliss of the long, slow vibration.
Think of your lovemaking. Nobody wants a lover who tries to make the undulations of sex go as fast as possible all the time. After a few rounds of this, boredom sets in. The high vibration becomes boring. But when the physical waves of motion are slowed down, sometimes way, way down, terrific excstasy can be the result. The little variations of the feelings of sex become magnified. Wonderful! You feel things you can’t possibly feel if you’re moving too fast.
So, those of you who are working as quickly as you can to get to as high a vibration as you can are missing the point of being in a physical body. True, some of you are almost ready to spin up and out of these lower planes, but if you were 100% ready, you would have done so already. And you will when you die. But as long as you’re incarnated, you have not finished exploring the ecstasy of the long, slow frequencies of the physical realm.
And because this is a holographic Universe, you are not neglecting the higher vibration experiences when you focus for a while on the slower ones. Your comprehension and appreciation of the higher vibration experiences is enhanced when you slow down and enjoy the physical world. And as a matter of fact, you can’t possibly experience the higher vibrations without a full experience of the slower anyway.
Start with your body. Its physical matter vibrates slowly, yet adapts very quickly, and contains a broad intelligence, far superior to your own ego. And it interfaces perfectly with your energy body, without stress or discomfort. It’s truly a gateway to all of the high-vibration experiences you desire; but opening the gate requires slowing down and getting with that slow, exquisite frequency of your physical body, and the physical world around you.
If you choose to continue to ignore lower vibration experiences, and focus solely on achieving higher vibration experiences, you will rocket to the highest plane of blissful Oneness. And after about 10 seconds, you will realize why you left this plane, to frolic in the physical world. Your kind tends to find these higher planes a bit boring, and you have a point!
